We will have a social in the evening, so please stay if you can!]

Kate from Real Seeds will be giving us a whistle stop of wacky and wonderful varieties from recent years before lunch. Please bring your unusual and unsuspecting crops that you think everyone should be growing! We can continue the conversation over lunch!
